Bidding ended. Lot is unsold.

One rose cut diamond is missing. One of the old cut diamonds has some abrasions to the girdle and crown facets. All secure in their settings. All claws present and in good condition. The clasp functions but is a little tight and the catch is slightly bent out of shape but could be rectified. Tarnish to the silver throughout, commensurate with age. Some light scratches to the gold.
